Monotone quantum stochastic processes and covariant dynamical hemigroups

Abstract

Based on the Hilbert C*-module structure we study non-stationary monotone quantum stochastic processes and general Markov processes constructed from quantum dynamical hemigroups indexed by a totally ordered set. We prove that the quantum stochastic monotone process implementing the weakly covariant process described by a covariant quantum dynamical hemigroup with respect to a symmetry semigroup is again covariant in the strong sense.
